Signing/Identification Certificate is used to digitally sign electronic documents or files to ensure secure documents workflows and meet compliance. When a sender sends signed documents using his Signing Certificate, the document recipients get assured of the authenticity of the signer, that he/she is who they claim to be. It ensures that since the signature was applied, the content of the documents has not been changed or tampered with. Signing/Identification Certificate proves a subscriber’s identity or right access to information or online services. Digitally signing documents is a great way to move away from the paper based signature workflows.
Dohatec CA is issuing Digital Certificate under Dohatec CA Trust Network for the subscriber to digitally sign the data to be sent.
Benefits of using Signing/Identification Certificate
- Sender authentication is achieved
- Document’s authorship is proved
- Document/message integrity is ensured
- Non-repudiation is established
Class 3 Certificates provide the highest level of assurance as these certificates are issued only after the Dohatec CA/RA verifies the Subscriber Identity in various ways. Apart from the verification procedures of class 1 and class 2 certificates, class 3 certificates verification process may involve the physical presence of the Subscriber, if required, at the Dohatec CA’s office. These validation procedures provide stronger assurances of a Subscriber’s identity than Class 2 Certificates.
The RA verifies the details of the Subscriber and only after ascertaining that the details are correct will recommend the Dohatec CA to process the certificate request.
The Private keys of the Class 3 Certificates should be generated and stored in tamper proof cryptographic devices such as FIPS 140-2 Level 2 supported smart cards or tokens.
